I am so sorry to hear this sad news and my thoughts go out to the family. Regards Marina

Ok Ian, there was I thinking you were there working. Hang on where are the icons? Regards Marina

This sounds like the ladder we have on the boat. We brought it for when I might have problems getting off / on the boat . Regards Marina

Hi Alan, yes we are surprised regarding Brooms. They use to stay open until 4pm and also be open on Sundays. So that is a right pain in the rear end regarding fuel and pump out for the end of the season . Our last trip out on the river will be the last weekend in November, so we will need to top the fuel up by 1 o'clock or of course get a fuel can . Regarding

Hello Kris and welcome to NBN. We all hope WayfordBridge all goes well . We will be up on the boat next weekend, but we have got next week booked. The next trip up to the boat is the last weekend in November, will you be up and going for drink and diner? Regards Marina

Hi Paul, well have a great time . I totality agree. Let the other boats overtake, while you just relax and enjoy plus chill out. That is how we enjoy being out on the water, relaxing . Regards Marina

Oh yes fingers crossed and lets pray the next news is good news for all and especially the family. Regards Marina

Thanks ChrisB and that is one program we must tape . Regards Marina

Hi Iain, I am sorry to hear that you were unwell and you had to cut short your holiday. Ian was talking about you earlier this evening. As Ian had said, how about looking into flying to Norwich and then get a taxi to the boat yard. I have a telephone number of a taxi service in Norwich, which we use when ever we need a taxi and the fare is not bad. All the best. Regards Marina

Please god let them find poor Lulu safe and sound . Your animals are part of the family. Regards Marina

Oh Grace, I am totally with you on that. Men uh [emoji37]. Give me a cat any day [emoji76]. Mind you witches don't get burnt in the 20 first century [emoji57]. Regards Marina [emoji48][emoji48]

Iain, stop giving me ideas, what I would live to do with him . Wish me luck . Regards Marina

Hi Eric, well my mother, mother in law had cataract ops on both eyes and they could see a lot better than they had done for a very long time. Next my sister and sister in law had the op and they are ok, but next was my brother and he had a problem after the op. I have been told that my eyes are ok for someone of my age. I have been told to wear sun glasses on a bright day. As you can see what others are saying you should go ahead and have the first op done. You will be fine . Good luck. Regards Marina

Hi All, as we will be up and out on the boat, I have brought items to put around the boat, so it will be fun to dress the boat . Regards Marina

It's funny, because I am trying to work out for moorings on Friday 30th Oct for the night, as we have a friend arriving at Norwich Railway Station from London arriving around 9am. We would love to meet them by boat at Norwich and I know we will have low tide Saturday morning. I am tempted to moor at Norwich Y/S over night on the Friday . I will let you know . Regards Marina

Hi Iain, thanks for that. He does need it, but I always get my own back [emoji453]. Yes Steve I wanted to put two fingers up, but that was the best I could do on my Iphone [emoji6]. Marina [emoji572]️[emoji311]

Hi Alan, we do it twice a year [emoji89][emoji111]and that is to go up to Horning. Over a weekend, there is Not enough time [emoji8] clever clogs. [emoji571][emoji571]

Hi Steve, enjoy your time on the boat and north river is a great place. We can only get up to north river from Brundall on our two week hols, because of the boat height and the bridge height at GYS and of course the tides. Enjoy . Regards Marina

Hi Iain, have a great time and I hope the weather stays dry for you . Regards Marina

Hi Jon & Jo, Surlingham Broads and Oulton Broad are the only two location on south river where you can mudweight. Rockland Broad is one Broad where you are unable to mudweight. Regards Marina

Hi Grace, I must admit what I saw of Strictly, Jay deserved more than one ten . Regards Marina

Hi and back Greatplum. You will notice lots of new and bigger cruisers. I will agree with Viking23 less public mooring, but being the time of year, you may be ok for moorings. Enjoy yourself and the stag party . Regards Marina

Hello Nollock and Nance and welcome to NBN . Fingers cross you have good and dry weather for your two weeks hols. Is this your first time on the Broads or have you been boating before? If I don't ask others will. Have a great two weeks . Regards Marina

What great pictures, and I must a mite I never new foxes could swim, but then I guess they are just like dogs. Regards Marina

Ok all, I am one who checks tides, not just going over Breydon, but any where we are traveling on the Broads. As some of you know we have an Alpha 29 made in the early 1990 and our height is 8ft 6ins, so we all ways have to check bridge heights. Crossing Breydon this September I had it right for the tide, but that was when we had high tides.We should have got under Vauxhall bridge going north with no problem, but at the last moment we had to lower the windscreen, because we only had a couple of inches to spare. So yes, checking bridge height is very important, but also knowing the tides is just as important. Regards Marina
